help a noob

Hello, everyone. The thing is that this map is my favorite and I played it a lot with my friends. However, it is a somewhat rudimentary map compared to others, and there are not many users who play it, that's why I decided to open the editor and improve it as much as possible, although my...

Hi people, I've been learning how to make spells on my own for sometime now and then realised the Hive has loads of tutorials. Sadly, I can't seem to figure out what's going wrong in my triggers. It is a hero ability, copied off the Firebolt (Warlock). What is it meant to do: Shoot firebolt...

A month ago I started a project based on the beginnings of the horde and the war against the Draeneis in Draenor, I have been learning to use the editor, missions, cinematics, scripts and much more in this time, but the editor every time me It gives more and more problems that I honestly don't...

Hello! I used to play Warcraft 3 in the past long before it was turned into Reforge, there is an old map I wanted to revisit I had played as a child so I downloaded it off this site and another version from EpicWar but both versions of the map wouldn't work. It was Wolf Packs Alpha by Darkwulfv...

So I know this is going to sound odd but I am looking to make a kind of anti-charm. The idea is i want to make a unit that you can't attack but one player can control. They use an aoe charm spell to change a group of units to creep class (so the person with the unit does not get control) but it...

I'm creating a spell that creates an area and continuously damages enemies inside. It works perfectly on single unit but halves the damage when more than single unit goes in. Any way to fix this? I'm new to triggers.

Can you change the weather effects in Reforged yet? Can for example I make a sandstorm across the map in high quality? Can I make rain look much more realistic and increase it? Does anyone have any examples or tutorials or videos of this?

I am simply creating a spell where an archer can rotate between different elemental arrows. For some reason the gui [Ability - Set Ability Real Level Field] may not be working properly or I am doing something wrong. Here is what im working with: I am using [Item Attack Fire Bonus] as a hidden...

Hi everyone! I was hoping someone else might remember a custom map that I use to play a lot, a long time ago. From what I remember it was some sort of survival style map. The map itself was massive, I think it was mostly tropical, but remember a giant snowy mountain in the west side of the map...

I'm creating a 3 player rpg and in my rpg there are various professions one of those professions is Cooking. In short I tried searching for some sort of Omelet icon and was unable to find a nice one. My idea is for an omelet version of the Thunder lizard Egg icon which already exists in Warcraft 3.

Essentially what I've been trying to figure out to do is a trigger that would enable my RPG to detect which of the three players are online so they can all get the game started at once. Let me specify a bit more. In my rpg you start at a race selection screen then a class selection screen...

I'm trying to make a Custom Hero Survival with proper hotkeys. For example, If the skill is in Position X 0 and Y 0 then it'll have Hotkey Q, if it's in position X 1 and Y 0 then it'll have Hotkey W. I'm not sure how to change an abilities hotkey to what I want it to be. (I was hoping...
